Is this hypocritical?

My short answer is "no".

You're really stretching here, Strat.

Hypocritical? By definition, maybe.
Troubling? No.

So, he can call for Imus' head over a "racial comment" but can hug on Chris Rock who says much worse? THAT is a doub;e standard.

Yes.
He can be offended by Imus and love Chris Rock. Fine with me.
I'm comfortable with the double standard. I'm aware that I shouldn't use certain words and phrases because they may be offensive. Fine with me.
I'm also not offended by languages that are not English uttered on American soil, two men holding hands or the rebel flag. That's just me.

LOL I can't believe anyone would use that rambling idiot's blog to make any point that might seem intelligent.

So Demeralda...you are completely comfortable with Obama's love affair with Chris Rock even though he obviously has a great disdain for the white race?

Are you actually trying to tell me that Chris Rock hates white people?

No, I don't think Imus hates blacks. The comment he made the other day was in defense of blacks.

Do you think he should have been fired for his comments?

The sh*t talk that happens about presidential candidates and videos like this are counterproductive and irresponsible.

Why do we continue to talk so negatively about our possible future president? Barack Obama and John McCain are the top representatives for their respective parties. Voted by the people.

John McCain isn't going to carry us off into the sunset anymore than Barack Obama will. I tire of feeling as if I'm voting for the lesser of two evils.

Vote for whomever you feel will best lead our country for the next four years and respect whomever is elected into office at least until they've proven to further ruin our country. I feel confident that neither of these two will do worse than what we've seen for the last 7+ years.

I consider myself an Independent, and will choose the candidate who is less likely to get into or start a bar fight (like Bush). Someone who can speak intelligently to best represent America (unlike Bush).

So.....you're gonna vote for obama.
Maybe you should be concerned with somebody starting a war with US, not us starting a war with THEM.

Check out this accusation McCain made against Obama:

...which includes a link to a speech Obama made in Flint last month.

If people would talk more about how bad the socialist scum who are representing the two parties are perhaps someone who is not anti-american like Chuck Baldwin or Bob Barr might actually have a chance.

Because he's a waffling socialist who is probably not even as good as Hugo. Michigan did not vote For Obama or McCain. There's at least 3 other parties if you don't like the two main chioces.

I'll respect them as much as they respect the constitution so in other words I'll probably be in support of impeachment. Even if they perfom better than Bush the next 4 to 8 years could be much worse.

I guess if you want someone who is most unlike Bush your choice would be voting 3rd party.
